Looking downstream, quite a few gusts into the 50s

Power outages so far

Isn't that "upstream"? I realize it's south of us, yet that is where it's coming from so I'd say upstream.

Ooops, yah.  Upstream.  As in that sh*t is headed straight for us.

RAP and NBS had some of the lower wind amounts for the Erie area.  But the NAM3k and RRFS were in the 80s there which doesn't seem to verify yet.  But even if you take 10mph off the wind speeds of the NAM/RFFS/GFS, they're still pretty bad.

I wonder how far south you have to go before you see mentions of tornados in the AFD

Again, I disagree - it also got that right. image.thumb.png.3c35fb31eefae3539f3a16a12b0d14a4.png

Think we're just on different pages here...more talking Connecticut and on northward as it looks like precip is already pushing into SW Vermont.

Wakefield has tornados mentioned.  Mt Holly and Upton have convection and tstorms mentioned

Spoiler
Additionally, while the guidance continues to indicate that the
vast majority of any sfc-based instability remains to our
south/southwest, CAMs do show the potential for a narrow band of
100- 500 J/kg of MLCAPE to advect into the FA (except the
Eastern Shore) this evening. Given very long, looping hodographs
(0-1 SRH of 300- 400+ m2/s2) and very strong winds just above
the sfc (65-75 kt at 925 mb), this HSLC environment may be
enough for at least isolated severe (60-70+ mph) gusts within
the strongly forced QLCS just ahead of the cold front. A brief
tornado or two will also be possible (embedded within the QLCS
and likely rain-wrapped if they occur). SPC has expanded the
Marginal Risk (level 1/5) N to include all of the local area
except our MD counties with a Slight Risk (level 2/5) across S
VA/NE NC where confidence in higher instability is a bit higher
and where 00z CAMs have shown some helicity tracks. The severe
threat ends by 11 PM-1 AM as the QLCS moves offshore. Regardless
of severe storms, the synoptic winds combined with the heavy
rain have the potential to bring down a few trees across the
area.

My nephew lives in Columbia. I sent him the updates. He's military (AF) so he's already "on top of it"

"On top of it" as in flying on top of the clouds 🙂? My nephew is AF as well. He's stationed in the UK and involved in NATO related activities throughout Europe.

Wind gusts already bad on immediate south shore of LI - if this is any indication this early in the game, its going to be very bad across LI.  I don't hear any planes landing at JFK either, I wonder if they are already being diverted.

Any flooding there @Rush ? 

None that I've seen.   My parent's Mt. Airy have a stream in their yard and its not significantly up.  It's height is normally a good gauge of local flooding.

During the great thaw after the Blizzard of 96 it went from like 4' wide to about 100' wide.

Sure looks like it.
